Moopy's Greatest Dance Anthems - BONUS ROUND. Still open, results after KV

[ButterTart]

American dance lists are invariably misinformed. Shocking really for the nation that produced disco.

That list is just 'oh, this is old and vaguely uptempo. That'll do.' These are the same people who only realised dance existed in 2009 and had to rechristen it 'EDM' just to make it sound like something they invented, so it's hardly surprising they've such a poor grasp of it.

Another forgotten one?

 

[ButterTart]

Another forgotten one?

I was joking before but I really am starting to think we need another rate once this one finishes.

 

[BoysForSeles]

Another forgotten one?

Good call. It caused me, for no apparent reason, to remember K Klass and Blue Pearl tracks I forgot about.

SOMEONE STOP HIM

 

[Tisch]

Oh wait I thought you were threatening another Semi. CARRY ON.

 

[Superstylin']

Good call. It caused me, for no apparent recent, to remember K Klass and Blue Pearl tracks I forgot about.

Haha i was literally just thinking of Naked In The Rain & Let Me Show You too!

Also The Ethics - To The Beat Of The Drum (La Luna), Atlantic Ocean - Waterfall .. the list is so damn endless

We really need a 90s rate as there was soooo many tunes!

 

[ButterTart]

Oh wait I thought you were threatening another Semi. CARRY ON.

I mean, I think we've all got a semi at the prospect of another round of voting, but this is definitely the last one. I was drunk and suggestible last week, and everyone especially dmlaw took advantage of me.

44 seconds in

 

[ButterTart]

So, after 14 votes there are ten new and ten returning songs in the top twenty. Hoping for a couple more before the end of the evening.

 

[Kate]

How many are going through?

 

[ButterTart]

How many are going through?

40 as normal, I just liked how the split worked out.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I can't wait to be Caramelldancing in the final!!!

 

[ButterTart]

I can't wait to be Caramelldancing in the final!!!

I can confirm it has already smashed its figure from the semis. Although since it got 6 points in the semi and you and COB alone have given it 10, that's not a massive spoiler.

[Kate]

Are we still going to be voting for 50 in the final, btw?

 

[ButterTart]

Are we still going to be voting for 50 in the final, btw?

Absolutely!

 

[Kate]

Christ. I've cut it down to 65 and I've still got to add this lot.

 

[Tisch]

Christ. I've cut it down to 65 and I've still got to add this lot.

Timebomb might forgive you if you drop it.

Might

 

[ButterTart]

I was worried people would think 50 was too many to pick. Now I'm worried it's not enough.

 

[Tisch]

Stop teasing another Semi you

Ahh it'll be fine. Good excuse to listen to them all some more.

Now I'm feeling drunk on 90s piano:

 

[dmlaw]

I say we move it up to 60 votes in the final. With an extra forty songs, it's the same proportion of the total list.

 

[ButterTart]

Definitely doable. I just need to rejig the denominations a bit.

When can I expect your votes?

 

[straightorbroken]

I've never seen the video to this (I'm not sure if the '97 re-release got the video) more than once on TV and never on YouTube. It would flop, but I fucking love it:

 

[dmlaw]

Just sent them.

 

[funky]

Another forgotten one?

this should NEVER be forgotten. Seminal. Although it feels like their other one, "Such A Feeling", has been forgotten because it's not on most streaming sites. That one is 1991 in a bottle for me...



when that vocal and piano hook kicks in...

 

[Superstylin']

Now I'm feeling drunk on 90s piano:

Never heard this before, it’s great!

 

[ButterTart]

Hey!
What's wrong with you?
You're looking kinda down to me.

Maybe it's because you forgot to vote in the dance rate bonus round? Fear not! There's still time, you've got until 6pm today to get your votes in and save your favourites.

Hi BT how’s it going?

 

[Tisch]

Just been on the phone with Kala. I won't reveal what he said not voting will do to their place in Kalavision/their chance at a normal life, but it really wasn't pretty. I would just VOTE if I were you!

 

[ButterTart]

Hi BT how’s it going?

Not bad. Just chillin', shooting the breeze with ma homies.

Since you're here, I'm doing this dance rate thing and you're more than welcome to vote in it. No pressure, we cool.

 

[ButterTart]

I have consulted Kala on how to handle non-participants, and black bin liners feature quite prominently in the procedures we've drawn up.

 

[Tisch]

Yeah, and that won't be only thing drawn up apparently!

I've said too much. Just vote guys, please. I'd hate to have to attend so many funerals.

 

[ButterTart]

Listen to Tisch, everyone! In round 2 I kidnapped @Iguana and held him to ransom until Tisch sent me his votes. He hasn't voted at all since, and Iguana has made no effort to escape from that Wendy house in my garden, but that's for them to deal with.
